The Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine is partnering with the Art Museum of Greater Lafayette to co-sponsor the second annual Art, Bark ‘n Brew. This cleverly named event will take place on Saturday, May 11, 2019, from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m., on the art museum’s parking lot and adjacent lawn at 102 S. 10th Street in Lafayette.

Art, Bark ‘n Brew is designed as a family- and dog-friendly event.  This year’s version will be larger than last year’s, and will feature three food trucks, as well as local craft beer by Thieme & Wagner Brewery. Fun, free activities and prize drawings for people of all ages and their pets will be featured as well. New this year is a judged art show for young artists in grades K-12, conducted in partnership with the Greater Lafayette Kennel Club.  The theme of the show is “Dogs with Jobs.” Winning entries will be displayed at the event.

Additionally, Natalie’s Second Chance and Pawswap of Greater Lafayette will be bringing some of their adoptable dogs to the Art, Bark ‘n Brew.
